The Fashion World’s eyes have been fixed on Rakuten Fashion Week in Japan at which suupaamoderu (supermodel), activist and philanthropist Elton Ilirjani participated in three stunning catwalk shows over two days for brands including House of MuaMua, and for Global Fashion Collective (GFC) - Old Fashioned Standards and Chidori. 

The House of Muamua was founded in 2016. The Italian high fashion house showcases irony and bold femininity. The Brand’s philosophy is ‘I don’t give a chic’. For the creative director Ludovica Virga, fashion is fun and is not to be taken too seriously. “I’ll save the world one sparkle at a time”, she says. House of Muamua tries to be as entertaining as sustainable by using made in Italy recycled wool, PET paillettes and up-cycled denim. The debut show at Arab Fashion Week, won the best designer award and the love of celebrities like Paris Hilton, Madonna, Gwen Stefani, Doja Cat, Lele Pons, Avril Lavigne, Saweetie and so on. House of Muamua is known for its iconic rice field catwalk in Bali during the lockdown and most recent fashion shows in New York and Paris. 

Workwear is for every facet of life, playing a vital role in how people present themselves and how they move through the world. Old Fashioned Standards is endlessly committed to providing meticulously handcrafted garments and accessories made in high end materials. Each product is hand drafted, cut and sewn in house, by Cassandra who specializes in working with waxed cotton, selvedge denim and up-cycled materials. This SS25 collection marks Old Fashioned Standards' grand entrance onto the international runway. This collection encapsulates the rich tapestry of creative diversity that OFS contributes to the workwear domain. With a nod to vintage details and finishes, Cassandra infuses her distinctive touch of inclusivity into fit, function, and fashion.
